It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Belmont building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.
