What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Melling building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
