Our reports are detailed, yet easy to understand to provide you with as much information as possible regarding your prospective new home. You are in a stronger position for negotiation by being fully aware of your options to make educated property decisions.

Do not pay too much for a house that’s likely to give you headaches with future problems. We know exactly where common problems occur, and can provide expert guidance on how to proceed.

Depending on what a home inspection reveals the house inspector may allow you to utilise a report to assist you in negotiating with the seller on price or to make repairs. Even if a report uncovers minor problems, you are able to still use it as a guideline for the future maintenance.

Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

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

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Linden building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed 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, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
