You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Kelson building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are 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: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
