What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Trentham building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
