Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Crofton Downs building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
