Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Alicetown building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
