Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Linden building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
