Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Woodridge building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check 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.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
