The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Ngaio building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
