If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
