Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Kelson building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
