The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Belmont building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
