Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Taita building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

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

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
