If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Avalon building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
