Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a certified Judgeford building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
