It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Alicetown building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
