The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a certified Ngauranga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
