The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Ngaio building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
