Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Wilton building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look 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 won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
