Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Stokes Valley building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & 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’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
