Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Kingston building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
