Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Lochain building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
