What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Belmont building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
