It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Mornington building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
