The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Anderson Park building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
