The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Aotea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
