What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Elderslea building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
