What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Woodridge building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
