Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Wilton building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
