If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Miramar building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
