If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Kelson building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
