Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Mornington building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
