If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
