Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Belmont building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
