Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Kingsley Heights building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
