If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Silverstream building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
