If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Akina building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair 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.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your 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 that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
