The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Wilton building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
