Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Lyall Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
