What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Akina building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
