Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Mornington building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
