The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Maymorn building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
