Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Aotea building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
