Hidden structural, moisture, roofing, or safety issues can cost thousands after settlement, and your leverage to negotiate drops once you sign, so book a pre-purchase house inspection before you sign, during any cooling off period, or before an auction. We carry out thorough building inspections that check structure, services, and drainage with photos and readings, and we help you avoid common mistakes like relying on a seller report, choosing only on price, or skipping the roof void, which leads to missed defects, unsafe living, and insurance or finance problems.
We are local to Avalon and we carry out thorough house inspections that go into the roof space and under the floor, not just a checklist. Many buyers rely on seller reports or book after they go unconditional and that can hide termites or moisture problems, so we talk you through findings, likely repair costs, and next steps the same day.

We are licensed and insured, and our inspectors spend two to three hours on site checking the roof, foundation, structure, plumbing, electrical, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, interiors, exteriors, and site drainage with moisture metres and thermal imaging when helpful. We work within your contract dates, we welcome you on site, and we cover all of Avalon with house inspections and building inspections that give you clarity, because the most common buyer mistakes are booking late, not attending, or relying on a friend, which leads to missed defects, no leverage, blown budgets, and sometimes a lost deposit.

People often rush a pre-purchase house inspection and miss small signs that lead to large repairs. Book it before your cooling off period ends and attend in person, and remember it is a visual, non-invasive review from roof to foundation that checks structure, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, and safety, and as a quick check run the shower for two minutes and watch for a slow drain or temperature swings.
Surprises cost money. Use these steps and you can spot costly defects early, renegotiate or walk away, and avoid settlement day shocks like dead hot water systems or rotten decking. You also keep finance and insurance on track because your report shows clear, dated evidence of the home condition.
