The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Belmont building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home 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 siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
