Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Mahora building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
