If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Days Bay building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
