The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Khandallah building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
