Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Avalon building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are 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 has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
