Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Woodridge building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
