The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Linden building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
