The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Seaview building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to 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.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
