It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Bridge Pā building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
