Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Kelson building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
