Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
