The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Akina building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
