What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, 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 specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Timberlea building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
