Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Linden building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
