The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Linden building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
