Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is imaginable to be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Kelburn building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication 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 with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s 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 have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
