The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

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

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Waterloo building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
