What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Pinehaven building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
