The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Glengarry building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
