If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Mount Victoria building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
