Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Avalon building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
