What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really check it out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Woodridge building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
