The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Khandallah building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
