If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Ascot Park building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
