Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Stokes Valley building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
