What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Normandale building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
