The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

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

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Iona building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: 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 in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
