What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Silverstream building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. 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 for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
