Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Boulcott building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any 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 early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
