The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Broadmeadows building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
