If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Newlands building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
