If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Silverstream building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
