Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Arakura building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

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 asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
