If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified ?t?ne building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
