Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Kilbirnie building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
