A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Mount Victoria building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
