The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Pakipaki building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of 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 constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
