Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Ngaio building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
