It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Iona building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
