If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Woolwich building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
