Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Silverstream building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
