The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Homedale building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
