Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building 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 problems , and indicate points that will add value. It assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

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

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
