Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Eskdale building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

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

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

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
