What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Bay View building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
