Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Te Awanga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
