Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Epuni building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
