Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Epuni building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences.
