If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Vogeltown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
