Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Belmont building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
