Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Glengarry building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
