What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Glengarry building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
