Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Homedale building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
