If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Alicetown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
