Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Aotea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
