What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Normandale building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
