Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Vogeltown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
