Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Woodridge building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
