If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Pipitea building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
