Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
