Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

This assures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
