Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Moera building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are 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 has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
