Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Belmont building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
