Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Arakura building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
