If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Alicetown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
