The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Mornington building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
