Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Avalon building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
