The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Seatoun building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
