Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Kingsley Heights building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
