Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Moera building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences.
