Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really need to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Woodridge building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
