The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Boulcott building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
