The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked?

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

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Putorino building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

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

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
