What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Waiwhetu building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
