If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Belmont building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
