Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Greenmeadows building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re 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 house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

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