The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Kingsley-Chatham building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
