Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Waitangirua building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt 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.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
