Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Fairfield building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
