It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Camberley building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
