Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Kingston building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
