Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Boulcott building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
