Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Awatoto building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
