The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Belmont building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

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

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
