You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Mount Victoria building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
