The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Totara Park building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

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