The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Mornington building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences.
