Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Melling building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
