The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Linden building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure 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 be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built 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 if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
