Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Melrose building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
