Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Te Marua building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
