If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Parkvale building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

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

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
