If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Epuni building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
