The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Parkvale building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
