The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Mount Victoria building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
