It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Melrose building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
