What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really need to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Maoribank 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 don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
