The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Glenside building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
