Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Ascot Park building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
