A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Aro Valley building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
