Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Linden building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
