If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Vogeltown building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
