What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Boulcott building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
