What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Kelson building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could 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’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
