Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Broadmeadows building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
