The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is possible to find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Kilbirnie building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
