The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Glenside building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
