The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Ngaio building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
