Depending on what an house inspection uncovers it is possible to use a report to aid in negotiations with the seller about price or to make repairs. Even if a report discovers minor flaws, you can still use it as a roadmap for future maintenance.

The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built 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 purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Kingsley Heights building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
