What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Kaiwharawhara building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
