What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Belmont building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
