The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Horokiwi building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
