Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Johnsonville building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
