Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Kelson building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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 siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
