The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so 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 sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Brooklyn building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
