The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Greenmeadows building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
