If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
