Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified 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. This ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
