Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Waiwhetu building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
