Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Silverstream building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
