Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Mount Victoria building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
