The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Pauatahanui building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
