What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Seatoun building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
