The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Wilton building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
