What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Kelson building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
