Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Melling building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are 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 cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
