What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Grenada Village building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
