The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Bluff Hill building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
