The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

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

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Wainuiomata building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

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

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
