Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Linden building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
