What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Trentham building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
