Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Newtown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
