The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Khandallah building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
