Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Moera building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
