It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Melling building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
