What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Waitangirua building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair 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

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
