Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Woodridge building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
