Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Waitangirua building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
