Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Roseneath building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
