If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.
