The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Wilton building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
