What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Woodridge building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
