The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Kingsley Heights building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
