The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Bay View building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
