What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Vogeltown building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

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

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
