Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Woodridge building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with 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 the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
