If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
