Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Khandallah building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
