Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered 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 nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Mount Victoria building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
