What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Johnsonville building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
