Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Miramar building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
