Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Parkvale building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
