If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Hospital Hill building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
