What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Judgeford building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
