If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Kingsley-Chatham building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
