The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Newtown building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built 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 piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
