The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Horokiwi building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
