Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Crofton Downs building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
