If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Epuni building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
