The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Totara Park building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It will make sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
