If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.
A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Otane building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.
The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.
Red Flags & Warning Signs
The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:
Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.
Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.
Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.
Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
