Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Wilton building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
