If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to 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 cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
