The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Wadestown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
