If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Ascot Park building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
