The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Mount Victoria building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure 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 are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
