The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Pandora building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
