Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Mount Victoria building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
