Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Breaker Bay building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This assures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
