What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Lyall Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
