Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Whitby building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
