If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Homedale building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
