If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Crofton Downs building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to 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 piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
