If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Miramar building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

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

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
