If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Stokes Valley building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will make sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
