The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Boulcott building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
