Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Waitangirua building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
