Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Seaview building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
