Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Moera building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
