Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Vogeltown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
