What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Wilton building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
