What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Days Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.
