Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Homedale building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
