Pre-Purchase Home Performance Report | Coffs Coast

Understand the home before you buy.

I measure the house, map every reading to where it was taken, and tell you in plain words what deserves a closer look before you decide.

Three things measured. One visit.

Mapped moisture readings to selected accessible external walls. Room temperature, RH and COâ‚‚ conditions. Tap a room to see one selected wall.

Bedroom 2 - one external wall, flattened out
Selected accessible external walls receive a mapped set of readings. The number of readings depends on the wall and access. That is how a cluster can show up when nothing is visible on the surface.

Surface temperatures are taken at windows, corners and cold spots, then checked against the room's humidity to see where conditions favour condensation.

Example house.

What deserves closer attention, and exactly where.

1

The corner of the house

Nothing to see outside or inside. The readings in the corner sat elevated against the rest of the wall.

2

Below the kitchen window

Readings rise toward the floor on the external wall under the window. Further investigation recommended.

  • What could not be reached or measured, stated plainly.
  • Core report within 48 hours of the visit, subject to confirmed timing.

What this covers. A focused assessment with mapped moisture readings to selected accessible external walls, room conditions and selected surface-temperature measurements. A reading alone does not establish the source of an elevated result. Internal walls, whole-home thermal mapping, roof space, subfloor, wet-area assessment and Home State are not in the core price. Where another measurement indicates it would add useful context, Joe may use thermal imaging at selected locations during the assessment. Whole-home thermal mapping is included in the Home Performance Baseline rather than the core Pre-Purchase report.

Common questions.

What happens if something shows up?

You see it before you sign. Any area that reads elevated against the rest of the house is flagged for further investigation and pinned to the exact wall, with the readings behind it. You know where to point the right trade, what to ask the agent, and what to weigh into your offer. The readings show where to look. They do not name the cause on their own.

Can this show how the home performs all year?

A single visit records the conditions present at that time. Later, separately booked measurements can add to the picture.

Can you work to my purchase deadline?

Send the date you need the report. I confirm whether access and timing can fit before you book.

Do I need Home State to receive my report?

No. Your report and supporting record come without it. Home State is part of the Baseline.
