What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Mornington building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert 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.
