The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Vogeltown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter 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 caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
