If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Normandale building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
