Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Kelburn building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
