If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Riverstone Terraces building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
