Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital
It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Are you required to have it examined?
If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.
A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Waiwhetu building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.
We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.
Red Flags & Warning Signs
Each of these could be costly to solve:
Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.
Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.
Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.
Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
