Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an qualified Mornington building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
