If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Arakura building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
