The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Melling building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
