Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Melling building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
