What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Aotea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
