Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Melrose building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
