Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Mayfair building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
