Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Normandale building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
