The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Maoribank building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
