What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Normandale building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
