Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

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 professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Fairfield building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
