Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Roseneath building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
