Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a certified Tawa building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
