Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Seaview building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
