If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Greenmeadows building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
