Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Newtown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
