The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Mornington building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
