The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Woolwich building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular 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: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
