Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Fernhill building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
