Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Pinehaven building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.
