The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Linden building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
