What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Mornington building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
