What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Silverstream building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

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

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
