What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Boulcott building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
