The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Eskdale building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
