Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Eskdale building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
