What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Wadestown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
