Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Ngauranga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
