The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Broadmeadows building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
