What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Birchville building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any 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 household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
