What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Fairfield building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
