Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Avalon building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.
