The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Broadmeadows building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
