Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Greenmeadows building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
