Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Ngaio building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread 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 about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
