Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Days Bay building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
