The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Ngaio building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious 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 house is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until 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: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
