Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Brooklyn building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
