What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Melling building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any 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 not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, 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 have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
