The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Belmont building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
