What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Linden building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Linden

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
