What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
