The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

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

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified ?t?ne building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
