What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really need to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Glenside building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences.
