What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Gracefield building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.

Inspections of houses or properties offer an unbiased review instead of what the real estate agent thinks might be the best answer.
