Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Grenada North building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
