The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Meeanee building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
