Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Linden building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
