Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Timberlea building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning 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 pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
