What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Linden building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
