If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Melrose building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
