Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Mayfair building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed 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 piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
