The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Avalon building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This will make sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: 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 products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist 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 for removal.
