Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Wellington building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.

Inspections of the property also known as house inspections are mandatory these days when buying the house. With the rising cost of houses and building maintenance costs it is important to know the exact value of what you purchase.
