Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified ?t?ne building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
