The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Glenside building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
