The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Kelson building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
