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 specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Kelburn building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you 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 issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found 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 very best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
