What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Lyall Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
