Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Kelburn building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re 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: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
