Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Boulcott building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
