What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Lyall Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: 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 won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
