You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Glenside building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
