What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Epuni building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
