If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Epuni building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
