If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Wadestown building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This will ensure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
