Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Ngaio building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: 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 the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
