What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Stokes Valley building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
