Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Ngaio building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
