Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Khandallah building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
