Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Kingston building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
