Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Mornington building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
