The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Hospital Hill building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
