Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Ngauranga building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
