The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Glengarry building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
