What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Normandale building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
