The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Judgeford building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was built 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, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
