What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Ngaio building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
