If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

It makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
