The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

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

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

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
