What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Maoribank building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures 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 identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
