Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Naenae building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
