If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
