It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
