Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Frimley building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
