If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Newtown building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
