Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Johnsonville building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
