Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Vogeltown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
