If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Vogeltown building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects 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 signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
