If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the 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 cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
