Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Grenada North building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also 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 gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
