What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Kingsley Heights building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
