What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Lyall Bay building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
