Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Roseneath building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
