Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Wilton building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
