If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Belmont building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
