The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Mahora building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the 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 homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
