What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Elderslea building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
