What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Lyall Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
