Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified ?t?ne building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover 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 household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
