You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Alicetown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
