Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Vogeltown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will make sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
