The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Normandale building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
