What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Arakura building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
