What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Vogeltown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
