If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Linden building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
