Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Mornington building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
