What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Brooklyn building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
