What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Belmont building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
