What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Linden building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
