It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really need to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Breaker Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
