Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Seatoun building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This assures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
