Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Melling building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
