Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Boulcott building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
