The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Seaview building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
