What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Eastbourne building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
