Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Kingsley Heights building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

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

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
