Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Vogeltown building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
