If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
