Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Trentham building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
