Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

This will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
