If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Wadestown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

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 won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
