What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Kelburn building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
