Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Heretaunga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
