Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Bay View building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

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

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
