Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Woodridge building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
