Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Clouston Park building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
