The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Days Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
