The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Kingsley Heights building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will make sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
