A thorough inspection conducted by an Linden building inspector usually takes between one and a half, and two hours on site. We allow maximum two hours for our standard pre-purchase inspections inside Linden. This is followed by a few additional hours in the preparation of the report.

Our reports are precise yet understandable in an effort to inform you as accurately as possible about the potential of your new home. You put yourself in a better negotiating position in the event that you are completely informed to make informed property decisions.

Don’t overpay for a house that’s likely to give you headaches with potential issues in the future. We know exactly where common problems occur, and can give you specialist advice on how you can move forward.

Based on what the results of a home inspection finds the home inspector may allow you to utilise a report to help you negotiate with the seller over the cost or even repairs. Even if a report only uncovers minor problems, you can still use it as a guideline for future maintenance.

The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Linden building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
