Why BuyInformed

We work for buyers
and sellers. Not agents.

Most buyers don't realise their inspector has ties to the selling agent, which can shape what gets reported. We don't take a cent to soften a finding — every report says exactly what we found, for both sides of the deal.

🔍
Truly Independent
No one pays us to change what's in a report — not agents, not vendors, not developers. If you opt in, your report can be shared with our agent network — but the findings never change either way.
📸
Photo Evidence
Every finding is photographed on the day. You see exactly what the inspector saw — no guessing.
🌡️
Thermal Imaging
We use thermal cameras to detect hidden moisture, leaks, and pest activity the naked eye can't see.
Australian Standard Compliant
All reports comply with AS4349.1 and AS4349.3 — fully recognised, legally sound, and defensible.
Instant or 24hr Delivery
Pre-done reports download instantly. Fresh inspections delivered within 24 hours. Fast when it counts.
💬
Plain English Reports
No jargon. Clear traffic light summaries, numbered findings, and a direct call if you have questions.
🏠
For Sellers Too
Sellers commission reports upfront to attract serious buyers, speed up sales, and justify their asking price.
💳
Afterpay Available
Spread the cost of your inspection with Afterpay. Because the cost of not knowing is always higher.
🔄
Share One Report
One inspection, multiple buyers. Sellers pay once, multiple buyers access the same report — saving everyone time and money.

FAQ

Common questions
answered clearly.

A pre-done report is a building and pest inspection that has already been completed on a property. Instead of commissioning your own inspection, you can purchase access to an existing report for a fraction of the cost — and download it instantly. It covers the same areas as a fresh inspection and is compliant with Australian Standards.
Yes — 100%. No agent, vendor, or developer can pay us to influence a finding, and we never take a cut for softening a report. Separately, if you choose to opt in at checkout, we may share your report with agents in our referral network — that's always your choice, never a condition of getting your report, and it never changes what we find or write.
Each report listing shows the inspection date clearly. We recommend using reports conducted within the last 30 days for pre-purchase decisions, as conditions can change. If you need a more recent inspection, we can book a fresh one within 24-48 hours.
Absolutely — this is one of the most common reasons buyers purchase reports. Knowing about defects before you bid gives you real negotiating power. Many buyers use the findings to negotiate price reductions that are many times greater than the cost of the report itself.
Smart sellers commission reports upfront to speed up the sale, attract serious buyers, and justify their asking price. When buyers can see a certified independent report, they're more likely to proceed quickly and with confidence — which means fewer delays, fewer price negotiations, and a smoother settlement.
A combined building and pest report covers: site, roof and gutters, exterior walls, windows, garage, stairs and decks, all interior rooms, bathrooms, kitchen, laundry, roof void, subfloor, timber pest findings, conducive conditions, thermal imaging results, and an overall assessment. Every finding is photographed and numbered.
Only if you choose to. At checkout you'll see a separate, unticked box asking if you're happy for your report and contact details to be shared with agents in our referral network. Leaving it unticked means your information stays with us. Ticking it doesn't cost you anything extra and doesn't affect your report — it just means an agent may reach out. You can withdraw that consent at any time by contacting us, and we'll stop sharing your details going forward.
AS4349 is the Australian Standard for pre-purchase property inspections. AS4349.1 covers building inspections, and AS4349.3 covers timber pest inspections — together they set out exactly what a licensed inspector must check, how it's reported, and what they're liable for. When a report says it's AS4349 compliant, it means it was done properly, by a licensed inspector, following the nationally recognised standard — not a quick backyard job. It's what gives the report real legal weight if you ever need to rely on it.
Yes — Afterpay is available on all services. Split your payment into four fortnightly instalments at no extra cost. Available on both pre-done reports and fresh inspection bookings.
No problem — simply book a fresh inspection. We cover the Central Coast, Sydney, Newcastle, and surrounding regions, with inspections typically completed within 1-2 business days. Contact us for a quote and availability at your property.

"Very thorough — got both up in the roof and under the house. On time, professional, and great value. The report found issues that saved us from a costly mistake."

"We used the pre-done report on a property we were bidding on. Saved us the time and cost of a full inspection, and the findings helped us negotiate $15,000 off the price."
