Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Aotea building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
