What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Woodridge building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
