Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Flaxmere building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
