What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Glenside building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
