What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Kingsley Heights building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
