Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Linden building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten 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 deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
