What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Kilbirnie building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

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

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
