The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Mornington building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" 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 is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
