The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital
Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really need to check it out?
If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant problems.
A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Harbour View building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.
The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.
Warning Signs & Red Flags
Each of these could be costly to solve:
Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.
Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.
Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.
Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
