If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
