If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

It ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
