Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Ngaio building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
