What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Horokiwi building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
