If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

It will make sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
