What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Khandallah building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
