The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Twyford building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
