What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Wilton building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
