Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Belmont building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household 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 that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

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