If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Makara Beach building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
