The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Should you really check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Mount Victoria building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or 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: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
