The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Mayfair building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
