Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Hospital Hill building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

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

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
