Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Vogeltown building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
