What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Epuni building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
