Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

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

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Woodridge building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
