Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Newtown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It will make sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
