You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Johnsonville building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
