Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.

Property inspections also known as household inspections are essential nowadays when buying a home. With the increasing cost of homes and building maintenance costs it is important to know the exact value of what you purchase.
