The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Epuni building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
