The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Stokes Valley building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
