Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Totara Park building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
