Insured and Vetted Inspectors
Operating Australia's most generous share cost model
For most people, buying a property is the biggest financial decision of their life - yet industry estimates suggest up to 70% of building and pest inspectors aren't appropriately insured. If an uninsured inspector misses a major defect, you could be the one left paying thousands to fix it, with no real recourse.
BYB only works with a vetted panel of independent inspectors who carry relevant insurance, so you're protected in the rare case that something goes wrong. And because finding the right property often means paying for multiple inspections, our cash-back model can return part of your spend if the report is repurchased - so the search itself doesn't cost a fortune.
