A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Miramar building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
