What Are The Reason 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 agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks 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 end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Bluff Hill building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
