Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Woodridge building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
