The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Wainuiomata building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
