If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Brooklyn building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
