The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Newtown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
