Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Newtown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
