If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

This makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
