What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Wilton building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
