The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Ngaio building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are 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 cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
