If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
