Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

This assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
