Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Newtown building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
