Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Newtown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

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