Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Khandallah building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
