Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Khandallah building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
