What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Kelburn building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.

Inspections of properties also known as house inspections are a must nowadays when buying a home. With the rising cost of homes and maintenance costs for buildings, it is important to know precisely what you're purchasing.
