Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Greenmeadows building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
