If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Epuni building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
