The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Judgeford building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
