Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Kelson building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
