Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Trentham building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
