Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Heretaunga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
