What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Broadmeadows building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
