The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Totara Park building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
