The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Ngaio building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
