Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

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 is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Vogeltown building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Vogeltown

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
