What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Frasertown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
