The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to be left with costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Wadestown building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
