The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Vogeltown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
