Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Vogeltown building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
