Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified ?t?ne building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections ?t?ne

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
