Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Iona building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
