What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Aotea building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
