What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Melling building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
