The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Kingsley Heights building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
