What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Avalon building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
