Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Vogeltown building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if 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: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
