What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Birchville building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
