The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Hongoeka building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
