Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Stokes Valley building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
