Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Birchville building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
