Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Melling building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
