If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

It will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
