Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Crofton Downs building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
