The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will make sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
