Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Ebdentown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
