What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Moera building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
