Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Grenada North building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
