The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Horokiwi building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This assures home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
