The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Homedale building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
