If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Seatoun building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
