The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Linden building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
