What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Melling building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
