What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a certified Avalon building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
