Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Kelson building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
