Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Crofton Downs building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
