What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Newtown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications 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 that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
