If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Arakura building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences.
