Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Days Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
