What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Johnsonville building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
