The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Mount Victoria building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
