Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Crofton Downs building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
