Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Totara Park building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
