The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Mornington building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
