Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Waiwhetu building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
