The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Linden building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
