If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from 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 might be costly to deal with:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
