What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Breaker Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household 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 that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
