Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Timberlea building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
