If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Brooklyn building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household 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 when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
