The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Days Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
