Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Days Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
