The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Bay View building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

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 to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
