Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Greenmeadows building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
