The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Totara Park building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
