Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Flaxmere building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
