What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Haywards building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
