Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Newtown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
