Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Khandallah building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
