What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Linden building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
