The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Ngaio building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
