Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Melling building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
