Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Ebdentown building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
