What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Maupuia building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
