If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Alicetown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
