It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Seaview building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
