If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Miramar building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
