Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Glenside building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant 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 signs that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
