The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Gracefield building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
