What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Strathmore Park building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

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

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

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
