If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
