What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Elderslea building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
