What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Vogeltown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
