Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Haywards building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
