What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Homedale building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
