What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Ngaio building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: 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. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
