What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Wilton building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
