If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Avalon building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences.
