If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Stokes Valley building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
