Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Days Bay building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
