What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Wadestown building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
