What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Totara Park building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
