Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Grenada Village building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
