What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Horokiwi building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through 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 may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
