If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
