Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Mount Victoria building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since 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 a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
