Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Bay View building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your 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 caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
