What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from 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. It ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
