Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Linden building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
