The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really need to check it out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Melling building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until 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 can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
