Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an 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 do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
