You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

It will make sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
