Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Horokiwi building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
